Inputs before outputs, but for multiple inputs/outputs, there is no order you could rely on.

Hi, Devaprasanth Murugesan

Just what I needed, it is clear to me that there is no guarantee on order. I will read more the documentation you shared with me.

Thank you so much!

Hi

Please refer the note on this page. Only for Input we have the details about the order in execution.

Thanks!

I just couldn't find any documentation on this topic, thanks for the recommendation. I usually do it that way, but sometimes when reducing the number of script task nodes I find myself in this situation, where the same pv is called in several outputs.

Thank you very much for your comment and suggestion!

Hi ,

In Appian documentation AFAIK, there is nowhere mentioned that the Order Of the Output/input will be in the given order. So for this use case, I would suggest to use, input node to save 1+1 and use the ac! and add 5 and save in pv!variable2 and If you want pv!variable1 to be used anywhere in the process later, then save the value 1+1 into the pv!variable1 in inputs tab
